Fibroids & Cysts

Acupuncture and Functional East-West Medicine is 94% Clinically Successful Treating Fibroids. Fibroids are fibrous muscle growths (leiomyomas) in and around the uterine wall.  Fibroids may cause symptoms such as difficult urination, lower abdominal pain, pain during sex, painful menstrual cycles and excessive menstrual bleeding that can cause anemia and fatigue. Fibroids can also lead to infertility and problems during pregnancy.  Acupuncture and East-West Medicine are 94% Clinically Successful Treating Fibroids.

Western medicine knows very little about the cause and prevention of fibroids. Further most treatments involve surgery and procedures that can result in infertilty, weeks of missed work, and do nothing to prevent new fibroids and related symptoms from reoccurring. It does not have to be this way.

Acupuncture and Functional East-West Medicine is the only evidence based medicine with 2000 years of written clinical cause and effect supporting natural, safe, effective, non-invasive treatments of fibroids that will also prevent new fibroids from returning while increasing fertility levels for those who wish to give birth. Further these treatments will not necessarily cause you to miss work. Your life will be uninterrupted while it improves.  In the early stages and when fibroids are less than 5cm in size, there is a greater clinical success rate of resolving them 100%. 

Fibroids form as a result of poor circulation and poor lymphatic drainage in the uterus and ovaries combined with hormonal imbalances.  Most women don’t know they have fibroids. Fibroids are usually associated with PMS, and cause sharp stabbing pain with blood clots during periods. Acupuncture and East-West Medicine are clinically proven as the best method to increase circulation and lymphatic drainage in and around the uterus. This process helps to relieve pain and blood clots while balancing hormones.  More severe cases of fibroids can cause spotting and even heavy bleeding and pain throughout the menstrual cycle.  Acupuncture and herbs are highly effective to stop associated pain and bleeding during the menstrual cycle.   Overall, this discourages new fibroid growth and encourages established fibroids to dissipate naturally. If not addressed during the early stages, fibroids can cause infertility and require surgery and even a hysterectomy.  

Treatments with Acupuncture and Functional East-West Medicine is supported by over 2000 years of evidence-based written clinical evidence to treat fibroids and cysts with Acupuncture, Traditional Chinese Herbs, Diet & Nutrition, Exercise and Stress Management!  Treating fibroids and cysts with Acupuncture and East-West Medicine is natural, safe, effective, and self-sustaining.

Treating Uterine Fibroids with Acupuncture:
Priscilla, Age 36: “Having been diagnosed with an enlarging tumor on my right ovary, I was informed by my doctor that I would need immediate surgery. It occurred to me that cutting a growth was merely treating the symptom of the problem and not the root. I opted to pursue acupuncture as an alternative treatment for the tumor and ultimate surgery. After working with John for about 7 weeks, I was retested to find that the growth had disappeared – rendering the surgery unnecessary. It was a magical and rapid result. I am very grateful to have worked with John in pursuing this treatment and recommend him without hesitation.”
